Keep in mind the 75 million is just one company’s uninsured losses, there are hundreds, maybe thousand of more businesses who have suffered losses and who knows what that total will look like when it’s all said and done.
Who is it that will pay? Well it’s the people who have lost their jobs as their businesses have been destroyed or shut down and for those that can remain in business, particularly the big chain stores it will be the customers.
Does anyone actually think it’s worth it? We’ll be footing the bill for all this violence for years, maybe even a decade or more.
We went through this already re: the insurance. It’s not that simple which is why the argument of let the people burn it all down, it’s insured was lame as hell and a cop out.
Good point. Furthermore how many insurance companies are going to be willing to insure any company in these inner cities? Those that do I would assume will have policies that are very narrowly defined.
Would be such a different conversations and different media coverage of the rioting and damage if it was caused by groups that we saw in Charlottesville.
But “The soft bigotry of low expectations”. Some groups do what they do, violence, looting, robbing, setting cities on look the other way and don’t speak of it
These municipalities around the country created the environment for these riots, didn’t back their police but did the rioters and have now made their bed that they now must lie in. It’s unfortunate that so many innocent lives have to be so disrupted by the actions/inactions of their elected officials but…“elections have consequences”. Either stand up for what’s right and elect better people or move?
